Here’s what we had to say about the PlayStation 3 version of The Stick of Truth when it first released in 2014: “Every scene is stuffed with references and Easter eggs, and the dialogue is so authentically written and acted that you really feel like you’re playing through an episode of the show.”

Ok I am confused. Wasn't it already on the PS4 before the preorder? I thought the preorder just gave it to you free.

I wasn’t able to grab FBW when it was mega on sale, and have been waiting for another one since, hoping one would happen before the end of the month to snag this game as a bonus.

Ah well, wasn’t meant to be! Bought a code off someone who didn’t want theirs (not from a gray market site).

I got Fractured But Whole for a gift, and it came with the download code for Stick of Truth. It was never pre ordered, but I ain’t complaining. Got a free game out of it.

I already got the free digital copy through Fractured But Whole preorder.

The only way I would consider getting this would be if the European version was uncensored this time around.

I have the PS3 USA (uncensored) version on my 'to buy' list. If the PAL PS4 version ends up being uncensored, I'll probably get that instead. I somehow doubt it though

Just like everyone else, I have it through the pre order of Fractured.

I do still have it on PS3, though.
